I hate Tucker Carlson, but have to admit I find him likable in this video.

[boazfrankel]

I was surprised how likable he was in person. And he ties on a bowtie so gingerly!

Jon Stuart came on crossfire and kicked Tucker in the balls. Tucker looked like he wet his pants. It was awesome.

The interviewer is clearly gay and in love with Tucker. Nothing wrong with that of course ...

-"there's gonna be a lot of man-touching"

-"hee hee, I'm totally ready!"

Carlson got a bad rap JUST because of the Stewart thing, and of course a bunch of people who only watch The Daily Show immediately had their thinking done for them and agreed with Stewart sight unseen, all they knew about anything was that their sacred cow Stewart, who is holy to them, doesn't like someone, so they won't either.

But he caved in and stopped wearing the bow tie.

Tucker is a pretty good guy, at least he says what he means instead of hinting at it.

John Stewart had, in fact, expressed his view on Crossfire and other sensationalistic 'news' programs before on his own show and elsewhere. If you watch the clip of the crossfire episode when he confronted Carlson Stewart begins the show by telling the hosts that he has critisized their show before. As well the very nature of Crossfire was that of a debate show, not a talk show. Because of that I think Stewart was entirely within his right to confront Carlson on Crossfire.

Tucker is the one who really scares those in power, not Jon Stewart. "Crossfire" wasn't perfect, but when you're America's Light 'n' Fluffy Sweetheart, you have to shut up whenever someone who makes the effort to be tough and serious enters the room.
